Haddassah Limunga Mbake "The Effectiveness of School Management Boards: An Appraisal from the Perspective of Public Secondary Grammar Schools in Fako Division" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-3 | Issue-6, October 2019, pp.1084-1097, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd29325.pdf

This paper sought to examine the extent to which School Management Boards (S.M.Bs) are effective in performing their functions as stated in Decree No. 2001/041 of 19th February 2001. In addition, it sought to investigate problems encountered by SMB as well as strategies that can be put in place to improve on its effectiveness. This was done from the perspective of secondary school teachers and administrators in selected schools in Fako Division of the South West Region. The survey research design was used and data were collected through the use of questionnaires for administrators and teachers. A total of 138 administrators and 291 teachers responded to the questionnaires. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques (frequencies, means and percentages) and revealed that to a greater extent the S.M.Bs are perceived by the respondents to ensure that financial resources are effectively managed in schools. Based on the findings, it was revealed that S.M.Bs in Public Secondary Grammar Schools, could manage financial resources effectively and efficiently to a greater extent than they could manage these very resources ineffectively. As such the following recommendations have been made: Educational authorities (Regional Delegates, Divisional Delegates and Pedagogic inspectors) should regularly visit and monitor the activities of the SMB to ensure that they are adequately respecting the terms of Decree No 19/02/2001 which spells out the duties of members. Training workshops should be organised for the members of the SMB on the proper management of school resources.
